Many accidents at work and complaints due to incorrectly fitting shoes

Whether twisting your ankle, slipping, tripping or falling – numerous accidents at work, but also in leisure time, are caused by incorrect footwear. An unsteady gait due to inferior shoes and an unsteady stance quickly provoke an accident at work. Wearing safety shoes that do not fit optimally also often causes complaints in the back or pressure points on the feet. Unfortunately, suitable and safe shoes are not yet prescribed in all professions. Many employees are therefore often overwhelmed to find the right safety shoes themselves.

You can find out how to find the right safety shoes for your profession in our animated video.

How do I recognize high-quality safety shoes?

Safety shoes are also constantly being developed to offer more comfort and, above all, safety. One company that has been successfully implementing this for years is Sixton. Thanks to various technologies, such as Dynamic HC Control or Stabilactive, these safety shoes are particularly comfortable to wear and offer the highest level of safety.

The Stabilactive system provides support made of stiff plastic material. Thus, the heel is supported, the arch of the foot and the metatarsal joints are supported by balancing the energy intake. By supporting the natural movement of the foot, significantly more comfort is provided and stability is maximized.

Dynamic HC Control provides more lateral stability in the safety shoe. The inner ergonomically stiff structure accommodates the heel, thus regulating the foot position and thus supporting the ankle during lateral movements. This guarantees a very tight fit of the shoe and prevents it from slipping out.
